This is a concept project. ClimaQuote is a fictional brand I built to show how I’d design for a real field service software category. No traffic has run through it yet, so you won’t see invented results here. You’ll see the decisions, and how I’d measure them.

The owner of a residential HVAC replacement company types “hvac estimating software”. They’re not browsing. Usually it’s 9 p.m. at the kitchen table, typing model numbers into a spreadsheet after a day of in-home visits, while yesterday’s quote sits unanswered. They’ve got three ads in front of them and maybe eight seconds of patience for each.

The usual leaks:

The ad says “hvac estimating software” and the page opens with a broad platform pitch. The contractor wonders if they clicked the wrong thing.

Decision 1

Lead with the time and the win

Lead with the time and the win

What the contractor is thinking

“Quoting eats my evenings, and I still lose the job.”

WHAT I DID

“HVAC Estimates in 3 Minutes. Win More Jobs.”

WHY IT SHOULD WORK

One line for the hours they lose, one for the jobs they lose.

Decision 2

Replace one price with three

Replace one price with three

What the contractor is thinking

“They’ll just shop my number.”

WHAT I DID

Good, Better and Best side by side, with SEER2, noise level and monthly cost on each

WHY IT SHOULD WORK

The homeowner compares your options, not your price against someone else’s.

Decision 3

Put the monthly payment under the total

Put the monthly payment under the total

What the contractor is thinking

“$13,500 will scare them off.”

WHAT I DID

A monthly payment shown right beside the replacement price

WHY IT SHOULD WORK

A monthly number they can say yes to, in place of a lump sum they’ll sleep on.

Decision 4

Prove it fits their pricing

Prove it fits their pricing

What the contractor is thinking

“It won’t know my equipment or my margins.”

WHAT I DID

Preloaded Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Rheem, Goodman and Daikin catalogs, labor preset by tonnage, a company-wide margin floor

WHY IT SHOULD WORK

They see their own brands and their own numbers, not a generic template.

Decision 5

Make the workflow feel short

Make the workflow feel short

What the contractor is thinking

“My comfort advisors won’t learn new software.”

WHAT I DID

Three steps with a time on each: build in 90 seconds, present on a tablet, sign by text

WHY IT SHOULD WORK

A time on every step makes the change feel small.
